SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — The city of Santa Fe, New Mexico, is trying to land the "The Bachelor," and it may shell out some money for the mission.

The Albuquerque Journal reports (http://goo.gl/GRqNAi) councilors are expected Wednesday to consider a request to spend between $50,000 and $100,000 from Tourism Santa Fe's reserve budget in an effort to attract the popular ABC-TV dating show.

Officials want the show to film one of next season's episodes in Santa Fe. The New Mexico Department of Tourism already has agreed to a letter of intent to commit $50,000 to the effort.
